I currently use rsync, since it handles ACLs, because I had problems there with tar and cpio. (But that's some while ago, maybe they handle it now properly.)
The target system is booted from DVD and then initiates the rsync. Don't forget to use -H and -A together with -a, and you need to call rsync for each file system (use -x).

What I'm looking at is to move fully operational system to another machine with small system disk.
